Itamar Einhorn (Israel-Premier Tech) sprinted to victory on the second day of racing at the 2024 Tour du Rwanda. The sprinter beat Soudal-QuickStep Devo Team teammates William Junior Lecerf and Pepijn Reinderink to the finish line in Kibeho.

Einhorn was presented with the event's overall leader's jersey after his sprint victory and now leads the eight-day race, tied on time with Lecerf and Reinderink.

“After such a long time without racing, I already was sitting on spikes a bit, you could say,” Einhorn said in a team press release. “[I had a] long, long training period – three training camps actually – but in the end if you come and win the first race I think everything is worth it, so I’m really happy."

The peloton slashed the gap in the final half of the stage, and the field was back together for a bunch sprint within the last 5km, with Einhorn taking the day's win.
